Once back in the Netherlands I continued my work as a piano teacher and have since been associated as a conductor and organist for several choirs, both ecclesiastical and profane choirs. As a pianist I give recitals and have performed on stages in Europe, China and Japan. In 2013 I participated in the ‘Yokohama International Music Competition’ in Japan where I received a special jury prize. At the moment I am involved in composing and I’m developing a piano method for beginners in which I point out the best way of developing a thorough basic knowledge of piano playing.
Besides music I like to be involved in poetry and philosophy. I am also very interested in the other arts, science and psychology. I am a strong advocate of the synthesis of art, philosophy and science. Art is like a psychological process in which all knowledge crystallizes into beauty and truth.
